MONTROSE (Susquehanna
Co.) The thought of traveling
with children may stir up memor
ies of returning from past vaca
tions frustrated and exhausted. A
little extra planning is the key in
gredient to easier traveling with
children. Consider these tips for
making the experience enjoyable
for both parents and children.
Tell your child about the trip.
Children do better when they
know what to expect Provide
your child with details: what days
and times you will leave, how you
will travel, how long you will stay,
what you will pack, what you will
do on the way, what you will do
while you are there.
Let your child help in planning
portions of the trip. This might in
clude items to pack or activities
while on the way or places to eat

plan to eat before children are
overly hungry. A tired, hungry
child cannot maintain acceptable
behavior.
Pack a travel bag of fun activi
ties for your child. Include all
time favorites, but also new activi-
ty books, markers or other items
for peak entertainment value. A
few well chosen items that pro
vide variety are better than too
many. Stores that cater to children
offer numerous travel toys, books
and games that are development
ally appropriate. A child’s tape
player with headphones can be a
worthwhile travel investment.
Help your child choose a new
tape, just for the trip (not to be
used before departure). Through
out the trip, help your child keep
his or her bag organized for best
use. This will ensure nothing gets
misplaced or left behind.
Pack your “parent travel bag”:
Include non-perishable snacks.

Children who like to write or
draw pictures may enjoy keeping
a journal of the trip. You can buy a
journal or make your own by stap
ling pages together. One good
time for a journal entry might be
in a restaurant after ordering. „
Children under four years of
age should be in a car seat while
traveling by plane or car. Not only
is this the safest way for your child
to travel, but children often feel
more comfortable in their car seat
and are used to falling asleep in it
If you are traveling by plane,
right before departure, tell your
child exactly what to expect on
that part of the trip. For example,
“First we will find our seats and

If you are traveling by car, use
the restroom before leaving, and
plan plenty of rest stops along the
way. Plan to stop every few hours
to let your child stretch and bum
off some energy. Time each stop,
if needed, and give a two-minute
warning to head back to the car.

These stops will pay off in the
long run with a happier child who
also sleeps better.
Expect the last day to be a
transition day when you start mak
ing the mental transition back to
home. Children (and some adults),
resist transitions and will show
frustration. Even when home, ex
pect some adjustment time for all.
Planning to arrive home in time
for a relaxed unpacking and a rest
ful night’s sleep can do much to
smooth re-entry into everyday
life.
